I just confirmed that a 1994 348 Spider does require a group 34R battery which is the Optima orange top reverse polarity type. | ||

It was the service manager from FOA that told me to get the orange top. Does the 348 need reverse posts ? | ||

Learn more at their website: http://www.optimabatteries.com My buddy has the yellow top in his Jeep with an electric winch. For the car I would think the red top would suffice. | ||

Frank I am pretty sure the yellow is deep cycle. Orange is the same as red except with reverse polarity. Check www.optimabatteries.com. Tom | ||

The orange is deep cycle which is better for a non-daily driver. | ||

I have a red top. I think the orange has the reverse posts. Yellow is good too, if you store your car - which I know you don't  | ||

After pulling my 348 Spider into the garage last night, I noticed the check engine lights were on. After turning off the engine I tried to re-start the engine and it did nothing. An hour later the engine started up fine. After some testing it turned out to be a bad battery. I plan to replace it tonight with an Optima orange top. |
